The Handbag is More Than Just a Purse

The handbag is more than just a purse, it’s a fashion statement that adds a bit of personality to your look. It’s also a must-have for those that live on the go, and carries the necessities for everyday tasks. Today’s handbag can be a bold, colorful celebration of fun or a sleek and classic leather carryall that exudes refined sophistication.

Handbags can be purchased in a variety of ways, including at a brand’s own branded stores or at any number of retail or specialty stores. They can also be ordered online or through a catalogue. Traditionally, women have tended to buy handbags that are in neutral colors such as blue, black or tan so they will match with a wide array of outfits. However, this trend has changed in recent years and many women now prefer to buy a bag that is more unique or reflects their own personal style.

In recent times, a few brands have been leading the charge in redefining what a cool handbag looks like. From heritage brands reimagining archived iconic motifs such as Bottega Veneta’s Intrecciato woven leather Sardine and Andiamo bags to newer label Mansur Gavriel redefining luxury with simple silhouettes that have become the latest must-haves in the accessories world.

Betsey Johnson is another big name in the purse game, and is known for her pops of pink and contrasting patterns. Her bags are one-of-a-kind and always make a statement, whether you’re wearing it to a party or running errands.
